Think & Discuss
AI in Cancer Treatment: Promise of Personalised Medicine vs. Implementation Challenges
Context from today’s quiz: Indian scientists have developed OncoMark, an AI-based framework that analyses molecular hallmarks of cancer—including metastasis, immune evasion, genomic instability, and treatment resistance—using large-scale single-cell data. The goal is to move beyond traditional TNM staging to enable truly personalised cancer therapy.
🤔 Your Perspective Matters
AI tools like OncoMark promise to revolutionize cancer treatment by matching patients with therapies based on their unique molecular profiles rather than one-size-fits-all protocols. However, implementing such precision medicine requires expensive genomic sequencing, specialized labs, trained oncologists, and robust data infrastructure—resources scarce in India’s public healthcare system.
Can AI-driven personalised cancer care become accessible in India’s resource-constrained public hospitals, or will it remain limited to elite private facilities, widening healthcare inequality?
Can AI-driven personalised cancer care become accessible in India’s resource-constrained public hospitals, or will it remain limited to elite private facilities, widening healthcare inequality?
- Should the government subsidize genomic sequencing and AI diagnostics for cancer patients in public hospitals?
- How can AI tools be designed to work with limited data and infrastructure typical of district hospitals?
- What role can public-private partnerships play in democratizing access to precision oncology?
